Having seen the crap commercial a million times now and checking out the reviews I figured what the hell a Wii Fit can probably fit into my workout routine nicely. (Considering I already have my body opponent bag (bob), my weight set, super bench, rower and exercise bike.)
What more does one need?.. entertainment!!
Firstly I hate Nintendo, Sega Master System kicked it's arse and so did Playstation.
The Wii is very much a standard nintendo console, a nancy boy gaming system aimed at preteens, teens and chicks. I wouldn't be buying too many of the games.
Well Wii Sports that comes with all Wii consoles is good for fitness and great for when degenerates come over and want to be entertained. Only problem is you have to cough up $100 for another left and right hand controller.
Wii Fit is the only reason I bought one and I have to say Wii Fit is freaking awesome.
The exercises are pretty good, (you aren't going to get as good a workout as you would at the gym or doing any other random exercise besides walking).
However it does allow you to do multiple exercise types. Balance, Muscle building, flexibilty/yoga and aerobics. (You aren't going to cover all these areas doing a regular workout and if you do congrats for having the motivation to plan it.)
The real value in the Wii Fit is the entertainment value. Most of the games are fun and even though a lot of them don't have much depth there are enough of them to keep you interested.
Hopefully there will be some other decent fitness games coming out soon.
exercise = boredom
entertainment = fatness
exercise + entertainment = buffness
